We have assembled a complete archive of Arcetri NICMOS3
based Infrared instruments
(ARNICA and
LongSp), with all available information stored in
a public database
[1].
All ARNICA data till 11/2003 are currently available.

We note that data will become publicly available only
one year after being acquired.

Collection of all data on
CD-ROM
support. and transfer of all data stored in the old Worm
disks to the more convenient new support. This transfer has
been already completed (5/96) On 2005 all data were
trasferred on DVD.
The disks present in the database are:

Collection of logbooks and all relevant information from FITS
headers. This phase is the most
cumbersome, and we ask the collaboration of all observers.

Storing of a back-up copy of all data present in the database with all relevant information
format to a new series of CD-ROM or DVD-ROM. All data will
be arranged in a per-measurement basis, while retaining the
date ordering.

Maintaining a Web interface to the global database for public accessibility.

A presentation of Tirgo Archive present and future, can be found here (Presented at WGA Meeting
3-4 / 3/2005, Trieste).

Note: on 5/2002, our strategy to recover absent or corrupted data
has changed. If you rely on these data, plese give a check!

Note that the TNG-Arnica data are made available here with only the
data acquisition headers. The standard location of TNG data is
the Official TNG Archive which will
also contain all telescope informations.
